Canada?s gold medal winner on the trampoline at the London Games hasn?t had much time to rest since her return home, being in the media spotlight.
She said the neatest event she participated in was throwing out the opening pitch at a recent game between the Toronto Blue Jays and Texas Rangers. The athlete admitted she was nervous, since her pitching skills aren?t up to par, but she managed to get the ball across home plate.
MacLennan has also helped open the Canadian National Exhibition and the Toronto Scotiabank Buskerfest, in support of Epilepsy Toronto. She enjoyed the athletic feats of the event, including acrobats and tumblers.
It?s been a ?whirlwind??for her lately, but MacLennan said she enjoys sharing her experiences with people at every opportunity, making her the perfect ambassador for Canadian athletes and her sport of trampoline.

When out in public with Rosie, congratulations flow Jane?s way, but she?s quick to point out it?s Rosie?s achievement. Her daughter didn?t do it for fame, but personal goals of perfecting a routine and showcasing a program.
It all came together at the right time, Jane said, adding Rosie knew heading into the medal round she needed more height, air time and an explosive routine to capture gold.
Rosie has already started training, with her mind set on defending her gold medal at the 2016?Summer Games in?Rio. Now that she has an Olympic triumph under her belt, she will be prepared for all that the next Games bring.
